Stronger character, deeper relationships. 5 questions that test your strength of character

If you want deeper relationships, your own character has to be strong.

In order to deepen your relationships, you have to have a strong enough character to support them. Understanding our depth of character, and deepening it, will help us maneuver the more complicated barriers of love more effectively. That is is what allows us to be more vulnerable with the people we love and more open to make the necessary changes to create enduring love.

Studio 5 Relationship Contributor Dr. Matt Townsend shares five questions we can ask ourselves to test our strength of our character.
